  Well a US soldier boy on leave in West Berlin

     E     (n.c.)                   E        (n.c.)

  No music there that rocks, just a thousand violins

  (n.c.)                A7              E

  He wants to hear some American Music, American Music.

  E            B7              A7             E

  They want to hear that sound right from the USA

  

  Well it can be sweet and lovely, it can be hard and mean

  But one thing's for sure: it's always on the beam

  They want to hear some American Music, American Music

  They want to hear that sound right from the USA

  

  It's a howl from the desert, the screams from the slums

  The Mississippi rollin' to the beat of the drums

  Because they're playing American Music, American Music

  They want to hear that sound right from the USA

  E          A7                       E

  We got the Louisiana boogie and the Delta Blues

  A7                E

  Country swing and rockabilly, too

  E      A7                        E

  We got jazz, country-western and Chicago blues

  E        B7

  It's the greatest music that you ever knew

  A7        E               A7        E             A7      E   

  Well it's American Music,    it's   American Music   It's American Music   

  E        B7             A7             E   

  It's the greatest sound right from the USA

  

  Well a US soldier boy has to stop right in his tracks

  When he hears that crazy beat, he turns and doubles back

  Because they're playing American Music, American Music

  The whole world digs that sound from the USA
